the standard style)

garbled d1407362ba More and more .Os cleanups. .Os is defined in the tmac.doc-common file,
so we shouldn't override it with versions in the manpages.  Many more to
come.

thorpej 723fb3cccc Add support for specifying the send and receive socket buffer sizes. This
is especially useful for TCP servers which must specify the receive
socket buffer size before the connection is made so that the connection's
window scale factor can be properly advertised.

Example /etc/inetd.conf configuration line:

shell stream tcp,rcvbuf=1m nowait root /usr/libexec/rshd rshd

That line will cause the rshd to advertise a 1 megabyte window, which could
improve the performance of an rcp in some situations.

typo fixes.

mrg 4e76afacc8 use the new libwrap functionality to provide tcpd-like functionality
as part of inetd.  uses /etc/hosts.{allow,deny} as tcpd does, etc.  it
is basically exactly like tcpd except that you don't need to change
the server to /usr/local/sbin/tcpd.
